<!-- wp:heading {"level":3} --> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">The live period is usually where offers start to follow once the weekend is wrapped up, and while any college opportunity is a blessing, there is still something to be said about a player standing out enough for a Division I program to want to bring them in. Below are some of my picks for prospects who could receive their first, or more, Division I offers as the week goes on.</h3> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["863111"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69e960203c66c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><em>Outside of her ability to shoot it from the midrange to beyond the arc, I think her playmaking is still underrated. She has a long frame, and the confidence to make full court passes with one hand, while also having the IQ to know when and how to create mismatches just by being a decoy. Off the dribble, she is just as strong. The growth over the last few years has definitely shown.</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["901833"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69e960203c6c9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><em>Avani has continued to be one of the more standout talents in her class, and this past weekend only created more separation. She looks quicker with the ball, her decisions are sharper, and her confidence is through the roof. Even on drives, she is getting through contact without slowing down or getting knocked off her path. Stronger and even more athletic. Colleges will continue to come with Division I offers.</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["954119"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69e960203c713"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><em>Johnson has had one of the most dominant freshman seasons we have seen in a while, and the numbers she put up were legit, against tough competition. Heading into her first travel season as a high school prospect, she has not slowed down. During AAU play, she has shown how talented she is off the catch and how quickly she can get it going with only a couple of moves. The shooting ability is there, she can get to the rim with limited dribbles, and what truly sticks out is her footwork from the high post to the mid and low post. This kid has it all, and she is not even scratching the surface of what she can be.</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["910407"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69e960203c758"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><em>The frame is what has allowed Skye to separate herself from others at her position, but she has developed a solid amount of skill to match her length. Most of that shows up on the defensive end, where she can contest, alter, and block shots simply by tracking plays and staying around the rim. She does a good job of defending without fouling and does not seem to lack confidence in that area. On the offensive side, she has good touch and feel around the rim, and she does not shy away from contact.</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["974069"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69e960203c79f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><em>A legit three/four level scorer. Reese has the skill set to work in the post, and most players at this age do not yet fully know how to be dominant and confident when operating from there. Quick turnaround jumpers, up fakes, and jab steps, Reese has that in her game. With time on her side, she will be able to keep developing and sharpen things even more. The potential is there. </em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
